How do you know for sure if your friend is being physically abused if she refuses to be specific when she tells you her husband is destroying things in their home?

A man that throws tantrums and destroys things around their home
is a dangerous person. Your friend may not be able to say much
because he could be around or she is extremely paranoid of him
walking in on her. Since he has these terrible anger outbursts she
feels like she is walking on egg shells and is a nervous wreck. If
she is able try getting her to go for a drink or coffee with you
and finding out more about it. Before you do go onto the Internet
to www.google.com and ask WHAT IS THE CYCLE OF ABUSE? This will
answer many of your questions and also she has the opportunity to
pack a few things and see a counselor at a Women's Abuse Center in
your area. They will protect her by putting her into a "Safe House"
and provide counseling, programs and help her to get on her feet as
well and provide legal counsel should she want to be rid of this
husband of hers. What is going on is simply not right, but be sure
you get the whole story before you take sides. Also, watch your own
back! This could well blow up in your face.
